GORILLA TREKKING

Tristar Africa Skimmer Safaris welcomes you to explore the hidden treasure of Africa’s most sought giant apes in the rainforests of Uganda. Add a wave of color to your safari in Uganda with a memorable visit to Africa’s most visited Gorilla trekking Parks – Bwindi and Mgahinga , you will find this experience very awe-inspiring!! Today, there are more than 8 mountain gorilla families living in Bwindi Impenetrable forest National Park; around Buhoma area the most famous groups, Nkuringo, and also Ruhija. Eight visitors per day are allowed to visit each group, with a well trained guide.

Note that Gorilla tracking activity is not a joy ride. Prepare for some hustle up and down the steep point in the forest. Sometimes it may get rainy inside the forest, therefore be sure to carry a raincoat. Meeting the mountain gorillas in their territory will at last be worth your effort. You will be allowed approximately an hour with your hosts. Take this chance to get any details you have been wishing to know about the Gorillas. To have a chance to visit the gorillas, you will need to reserve a permit for your entry into the park. Pearl Africa safaris will be glad to organize for you all your gorilla trip requirements including the permits. Please note permits require booking in advance.

Forest walks- Even if you did not score or can’t afford gorilla tracking, Bwindi is a rewarding park to visit just for a chance to explore the lush virgin rainforest. Several 3 to 4 hours nature walks penetrate the impenetrable forest around Buhoma. Enjoy nature walks to the waterfall trail, Muzabijiro loop trail, Rushura hill trail, and River Ivi trail. All these trails provide amazing views of the forest, overlooking the Virunga volcanoes and amazing bird watching spots.
